Cuba comes to Michael Moore’s defense

By Michelle Malkin  •  May 12, 2007 09:50 AM

Cuba is decrying the “censorship” of crockumentarian Michael Moore. Yeah, Cuba is decrying censorship:

Cuba characterized American filmmaker Michael Moore as a victim of censorship and the U.S. trade embargo as it reported Friday on a U.S. Treasury Department probe of his March visit here for his upcoming health-care documentary, “Sicko.”

Moore took the trip, for a segment in the film, with about 10 ailing workers involved in the rescue effort at the World Trade Center ruins.

The Communist Party daily Granma called the 45-year-old U.S. travel and trade sanctions “a criminal action that has cost lives and grave consequences for the inhabitants of the island,” as well as Americans.

“Any resemblance to McCarthyism is no coincidence,” the newspaper opined, referring to the political witch hunt that U.S. Sen. Joseph McCarthy carried out against suspected American communists in the 1950s.

The U.S. government’s targeting of Moore “confirms the imperial philosophy of censorship” by American officials, it added.

No, this is what the “imperial philosophy of censorship” looks like. Independent journalists imprisoned in Cuba:

While we’re on the subject of Cuba, Michael Moore, and far Left propaganda, Cuban bloggers are exposing the lies about the Castro regime’s Communist health care system.

Start at Babalu Blog. Then go to Cuba Watch. Fausta’s Blog blew the whistle on Princeton Public Library’s “human rights festival” shilling for Castro. More background at Gates of Vienna.

Who’s the Sicko?
